Water Stocks; Mueller Water Products(NYSE: MWA) Reports Fiscal Second Quarter 2010 Results
Net Sales Excluding Divested Operations Increased Year-over-Year
Mueller Co. Core Products Bookings up 40 Percent Year-over-Year
Second Quarter EPS Loss of $0.15 and Adjusted EPS Loss of $0.11
ATLANTA--(Investorideas.com water stocks newswire)--Mueller Water Products, Inc. (NYSE: MWA) reported net sales of $301.8 million and a net loss of $23.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Summarized consolidated 2010 second quarter results compared to 2009 second quarter results are as follows:
“Our second-quarter results came in essentially as we had expected. Net sales excluding divested operations in the second quarter increased from the prior year period, the first quarter in six quarters in which net sales increased year-over-year”
.•Net sales for the 2010 second quarter were $301.8 million, down 6.3 percent compared to $322.2 million for the 2009 second quarter. Excluding the net sales of two divested Anvil businesses, net sales for the 2010 second quarter increased 2.3 percent year-over-year.
•Loss from operations for the 2010 second quarter was $22.9 million compared to a loss from operations of $618.2 million for the 2009 second quarter. Adjusted loss from operations for the 2010 second quarter was $12.4 million compared to adjusted loss from operations of $5.1 million for the 2009 second quarter.
•Adjusted EBITDA was $9.0 million for the 2010 second quarter compared to $18.8 million for the 2009 second quarter.
•Net loss per share was $0.15 for the 2010 second quarter compared to a net loss per share of $4.90 for the 2009 second quarter. Adjusted net loss per share was $0.11 for the 2010 second quarter compared to adjusted net loss per share of $0.13 for the 2009 second quarter.
•Net debt, which is total debt less cash and cash equivalents, at March 31, 2010, decreased $88.4 million to $590.3 million since September 30, 2009.
“Our second-quarter results came in essentially as we had expected. Net sales excluding divested operations in the second quarter increased from the prior year period, the first quarter in six quarters in which net sales increased year-over-year,” said Gregory E. Hyland, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Mueller Water Products. “Capacity utilization increased in all three business segments: Mueller Co., U.S. Pipe and Anvil, which is expected to benefit our financial performance in the second half of the year. Unit bookings of our core products at Mueller Co. – valves, hydrants and brass service - increased 40 percent year-over-year, and bookings on a tonnage basis at U.S. Pipe increased over 50 percent. However, pricing continued to negatively impact sales at U.S. Pipe during the quarter, and we believe pricing could remain challenging for the balance of the fiscal year. Anvil’s results reflect the downturn in non-residential construction.
“We are seeing clear signs the water infrastructure market is gradually recovering and positive trends in some of our businesses. The improved order trends we saw in our water infrastructure markets in the first quarter strengthened further in the second quarter. The uptick in orders, especially as we enter the construction season, reinforces our belief that we will continue to increase capacity utilization, which should lead to higher margins.”
Second Quarter Consolidated Results
Net sales for the 2010 second quarter of $301.8 million declined $20.4 million from $322.2 million for the 2009 second quarter. Net sales declined due to the divestiture of two Anvil businesses, which had sales of $27.3 million in the 2009 second quarter, and lower pricing of $19.4 million, mainly at U.S. Pipe. These items were partially offset by $25.1 million of higher shipment volumes and favorable Canadian currency exchange rates of $2.6 million.
Adjusted loss from operations for the 2010 second quarter of $12.4 million increased $7.3 million from $5.1 million for the 2009 second quarter. Results were negatively impacted by the lower sales pricing and $9.4 million of higher per-unit overhead costs primarily due to lower production. The quarter’s results were positively impacted by $12.9 million of manufacturing and other cost savings, $7.4 million of higher shipment volumes and $3.6 million of lower raw material costs.
Second Quarter Segment Results
Mueller Co.
Net sales for Mueller Co. increased $26.4 million to $141.2 million for the 2010 second quarter from $114.8 million for the 2009 second quarter due mainly to $26.8 million of higher shipment volumes. Shipment volumes of iron gate valves, hydrants and brass service products for the quarter all increased above the prior year period.
Income from operations of $9.7 million for the 2010 second quarter increased $7.1 million from adjusted income from operations of $2.6 million for the 2009 second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $22.2 million for the 2010 second quarter from $15.8 million for the 2009 second quarter. Income from operations increased due to $9.9 million of higher shipment volumes and $5.3 million of manufacturing and other cost savings. These items were partially offset by $2.8 million of higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily associated with investments in Mueller Systems, $2.0 million of higher per-unit overhead costs, and $1.2 million of lower sales pricing.
U.S. Pipe
Net sales for U.S. Pipe of $83.0 million for the 2010 second quarter declined $10.2 million from $93.2 million for the 2009 second quarter. This decrease was due to $17.6 million of lower pricing partially offset by $7.4 million of higher shipment volumes.
Adjusted loss from operations of $19.6 million and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $14.6 million for the 2010 second quarter compare to adjusted loss from operations of $10.9 million and an adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.7 million for the 2009 second quarter. The 2010 second quarter results were negatively impacted by lower sales pricing partially offset by a number of positive factors, including $4.8 million of manufacturing and other cost savings, $1.9 million of higher shipment volumes, $1.4 million of lower selling, general and administrative expenses and $1.1 million of lower raw material costs. During the quarter we recorded $10.4 million in restructuring charges primarily associated with the closure of the North Birmingham facility.
Anvil
Net sales for Anvil of $77.6 million for the 2010 second quarter declined $36.6 million from $114.2 million for the 2009 second quarter. Net sales declined $27.3 million due to the divestiture of two businesses and $9.1 million due to lower shipment volumes.
Adjusted income from operations of $6.0 million and adjusted EBITDA of $9.7 million for the 2010 second quarter compare to adjusted income from operations of $12.1 million and adjusted EBITDA of $16.5 million in the 2009 second quarter. Adjusted income from operations decreased $8.1 million from higher per-unit overhead costs primarily due to lower production and $4.4 million of lower shipment volumes. These decreases were partially offset by $3.1 million from the gain on the sale of one of the divestitures, $2.8 million of manufacturing and other cost savings and $2.1 million of lower raw material costs.
Interest Expense
Net interest expense of $14.8 million for the 2010 second quarter decreased from $16.6 million for the 2009 second quarter. The 2010 second quarter included a $1.2 million net benefit from the settlement of interest rate swap contracts associated with debt repayments. When adjusted, 2010 second quarter net interest expense decreased $0.6 million from the 2009 second quarter primarily due to lower debt levels during the 2010 second quarter partially offset by higher interest rates.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company presents adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per share, net debt and free cash flow as non-GAAP measures. Adjusted income (loss) from operations represents income (loss) from operations excluding impairment, restructuring and debt extinguishment-related items. Adjusted EBITDA represents income (loss) before depreciation, amortization, debt-related transactions, interest income, income taxes, impairment and restructuring charges. The Company presents adjusted EBITDA because it is an important supplemental measure of performance, and management believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and interested parties in the evaluation of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and investors should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share exclude impairment and restructuring charges, gains and losses from the early settlement of interest rate swap contracts and the early extinguishment of debt. These items are excluded because they are considered unusual and not indicative of recurring operations. Net debt, which is total debt less cash and cash equivalents, is used because management reviews net debt as part of its management of the Company’s overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. Furthermore, certain debt rating agencies, creditors and credit analysts monitor the Company’s net debt as part of their assessment of the Company’s business. Free cash flow, which represents cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures, is presented as a measurement of cash flow because it is commonly used by the investment community.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP results is included as an attachment to this press release and has been posted online at www.muellerwaterproducts.com.

Water Stocks; ITT’s (NYSE: ITT) WEDECO Ozone Generators Chosen for City of Wichita Aquifer Storage Project
Water Stocks; ITT’s (NYSE: ITT) WEDECO Ozone Generators Chosen for City of Wichita Aquifer Storage Project
Combined treatment system removes Endocrine Disrupting Compounds, kills pathogens
CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(Investorideas.com water stocks newswire)--ITT Corporation (NYSE: ITT), a global leader in the transport and treatment of water and wastewater, announced that its WEDECO ozone generators have been chosen by Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. for placement in a new treatment plant in Wichita, Kansas. Together with Air Products’ Halia™ advanced oxidation system, ITT’s WEDECO ozone generators form a complete Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) solution that removes Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDCs), which result from the use of pharmaceuticals and personal care products. The AOP solution is also capable of killing pathogens and mitigating bromate formation as a carcinogenic by-product. The system will treat 30 million gallons of water per day at the Wichita surface water treatment plant.
The plant is built in conjunction with the Equus Beds Aquifer Storage and Recovery Project. To counter water shortages due to population growth, the City of Wichita has developed this multi-phase project that will draw excess water from the Little Arkansas River. That water will be treated and then pumped into the Equus Beds Aquifer for future residential, agricultural and commercial use.
Shaun Porter, water industry specialist at Air Products said, “We are extremely pleased with our arrangement with ITT to provide a cost-effective contaminant removal solution. The Halia advanced oxidation system can help meet disinfection requirements while also destroying trace contaminants and minimizing the formation of by-products, such as bromate, making it ideal for drinking water applications, as well as water reuse and process water clean-up.”
WEDECO PDO Series ozone generators were selected for this project, with each unit producing 2,100 pounds per day of ozone. This system comes completely mounted and instrumented and utilizes the industry-leading WEDECO EFFIZON® HP electrodes and variable frequency power supply technology.

Water Stocks; Energy Recovery Inc’s (NASDAQ: ERII) Pump Engineering Triumphs with Distinction Award for Water Technology Company of the Year
Industry-Leading Energy Recovery Devices Lauded for Innovative Global Desalination Application; Energy Recovery also Recognized as Integral to the Desalination Plant of the Year
SAN LEANDRO, Calif.--(Investorideas.com water stocks newswire )--Energy Recovery Inc (NASDAQ: ERII), a leader in the design and development of energy recovery devices for desalination, today announced that Pump Engineering (acquired by Energy Recovery in 2009) received the Distinction Award in the Water Technology Company of the Year category as part of the Global Water Intelligence Global Water Awards 2010. Energy Recovery was also recognized as part of the Desalination Plant of the Year Award for the inclusion of the company’s industry-leading PX Pressure Exchanger™ (PX™) energy recovery devices as an integral component at the Barcelona-Llobregat desalination plant in Spain.
“The Global Water Awards recognize industry visionaries and technology innovators, highlighting those companies and projects that set the standard for the global water industry to follow”
.“The 2010 Global Water Awards represent a crowning achievement for Energy Recovery from both a business and a technology perspective,” said G.G. Pique, president and CEO of Energy Recovery Inc. “The recognition of Pump Engineering as the Distinction Award winner in the Water Technology Company of the Year category further validates the significance of that strategic acquisition, and the Barcelona-Llobregat desalination plant being selected as the Desalination Plant of the Year demonstrates just how vital our PX devices are to the success of a seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination facility. We are grateful to Global Water Intelligence and the entire international water industry for their continued recognition of Energy Recovery as a global industry business and technology leader.”
The Global Water Intelligence Global Water Awards recognize the most significant achievements in the global water industry during the past year, and the Water Technology Company of the Year acknowledges the company that has made the most significant contribution in the field of water technology. Pump Engineering, a leading provider of centrifugal turbine energy-saving technology for seawater and brackish desalination applications, was selected as the Distinction Award winner for its considerable achievements in 2009, including doubling global market share and securing a contract for its energy recovery devices at the Magtaa desalination plant in Algeria. Pump Engineering’s success in 2009 culminated in the December acquisition by Energy Recovery Inc, creating one of the industry’s most comprehensive portfolios of energy recovery devices and fluid processing systems for SWRO desalination as well as for oil and gas processing.
In addition, Energy Recovery was also recognized for the integration of its PX devices into the Barcelona-Llobregat desalination plant, the winner of the Desalination Plant of the Year Award. Producing 200,000 m3/day of potable water for metropolitan Barcelona, the SWRO facility is the largest in Europe. By reducing the energy consumed during the SWRO desalination process by up to 60 percent, Energy Recovery is helping the Barcelona-Llobregat and other global facilities cost-effectively produce fresh, clean water.
“The Global Water Awards recognize industry visionaries and technology innovators, highlighting those companies and projects that set the standard for the global water industry to follow,” said Christopher Gasson, publisher of Global Water Intelligence. “Energy Recovery and Pump Engineering have long been two of the industry’s established leaders, so it is no surprise that the combined entity has been acknowledged for its cutting-edge technology achievements as well as for the practical application of its solutions. We applaud Energy Recovery and look forward to continued success from the company in 2010 and beyond.”
Energy Recovery's PX devices operate at up to 98 percent efficiency and reduce the energy consumption of SWRO systems by up to 60 percent, making desalination a cost-effective solution for clean water supply.

Water News; Shrinking Aral Sea underscores need for urgent action on environment – Ban
Water News; Shrinking Aral Sea underscores need for urgent action on environment – Ban
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on visit to the Aral Sea
http://www.un.org/
Investorideas.com water stocks newswire - 4 April 2010 – Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Sunday witnessed one of the world's worst environmental disasters as he flew over the shrinking Aral Sea – a sight which he said underscores the need for collective action to save the planet's resources.
The Aral Sea, once the world's fourth largest lake, has in recent decades shrunk in size by more than 70 per cent after tributary rivers were diverted for irrigation projects. The salinity of the region's soil has soared and the area is also heavily polluted.
“It was shocking,” Mr. Ban told reporters in Nukus after a helicopter tour of the area with Prime Minister Shavkat Mirziyoyev of Uzbekistan, the latest stop on his visit to Central Asia.
“It is clearly one of the worst environmental disasters of the world... It really left with me a profound impression, one of sadness that such a mighty sea has disappeared,” he stated.
The Secretary-General said that, standing on the shores of a vanished sea, he could not see anything except a “cemetery of ships marooned in the sand.” As a result of the disaster, people are getting sick, the land is poisoned, and storms blow dust and salt as far as the North Pole.
“It was a vivid testament to what [...] happens [...] when we waste our common natural resources, when we neglect our environment, when we mismanage our environment.”
Speaking later at an official dinner in the capital, Tashkent, the Secretary-General noted that the aerial tour reminded him of flying over Africa's Lake Chad in 2008. “It, too, has shrunk to a small fraction of its former size, with disastrous effects on millions of people.
“I think this is a collective responsibility, not only for the nations of Central Asia but the whole world,” he said. “I was very encouraged by what I learned? all the measures the Government is taking to deal with the effects of the disaster.”
Mr. Ban voiced appreciation for the international fund for saving the Aral Sea which was initiated by the five leaders of Central Asia, and pledged the UN's assistance for their efforts.
“We should become better stewards in managing the environment,” Mr. Ban stated. “We must deliver this Planet Earth to our succeeding generations, so that they can live in a more hospitable, in a more environmentally sustainable way.
“That is a moral and political imperative,” he stressed.
While in Tashkent, the Secretary-General will meet tomorrow with President Islam Karimov and deliver a lecture at the University of World Economy and Diplomacy.
Mr. Ban's first official visit to Central Asia since becoming UN chief also included stops in Turkmenistan and Kyrgyzstan, and will take him next to Tajikistan and Kazakhstan.
